2. We're sort of the same way

But then, we have a few other requirements that pretty much exclude people like that in the first place.

And we’re still hiring, too. I joined my outfit when we were maybe a dozen guys from ages 19 to 23. Now we’re over a thousand people worldwide, same two guys running it. If you’re fluent in Russian, German, French, and either Cantonese or Japanese, we might need you. If you know the rest plus Cantonese AND Japanese, we definitely need you. Oh, and English, too, by the way. No using an apostrophe to form a plural—Republicanese does that. English does not. So, not much danger of any Stephen Miller clones or ICE types. I joined 50 years ago, before the Asian offices, so I didn’t have to know Japanese or Cantonese.
